Submit work after been logged out

If I deactivate Countdonw Timer I will be able to set the browser refresh time. In the Drupal 5 version I set this to 0 and when a user submitted some work after he was logged out, the work was still saved.
I saw some reference in the augologout.module, but I haven't been able to verify if it works. No matter what I do the work is gone if the user has been logged out and he tries to submit it.
